12. + T cell populations specific for an influenza A-derived epitope. Interestingly, no such relationship was apparent for a different epitope from the same pathogen restricted by the same MHCI molecule; this latter epitope lacks prominent features and is typically associated with a 'public' repertoire, thereby indicating that clonal diversity is a pre-requisite for avidity maturation.
13. + T cell responses, at least in the presence of a persistent and stable cognate stimulus. In addition, the data suggest that CD8 compensation can contribute to the maintenance of repertoire diversity in MHCI-restricted T cell populations.

This study demonstrates that a structurally 'featureless' influenza A-derived epitope engages a restricted TCR repertoire, whereas a repertoire with greater diversity is selected by an epitope with more prominent determinants. Importantly, a mutation in the latter epitope that reduced side chain accessibility was associated with a commensurate reduction in the diversity of the cognate repertoire on infection with a virus engineered to express this variant.

Interface-disrupting amino acids establish specificity between T cell receptors and complexes of major histocompatibility complex and peptide. Nat Immunol 7 (2006) 1191-1199. This paper demonstrates that cross-reactive TCRs bind fewer pMHC side chains with high affinity than more specific TCRs. In addition, it reports the intriguing observation that 'interface-disruptive' side chains contribute to TCR specificity by exerting inhibitory effects on binding.

Although limited to an analysis of cross-reactivity with a haptenated peptide ligand, this study demonstrates that multiple cooperative changes in protein structure on both sides of the binding interface can be involved in TCR cross-recognition.
